Early Runner Runner for Barakat
Level 1
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
No Limit Hold'em
Picking up the action on the flop where Chance Kornuth made a bet of 3,200 sitting in early position on a flop of A♥10♣2♠. Erick Lindgren called from the small blind and Youness Barakat raised to 11,500 from the big blind. Kornuth folded and Lindgren called once again.
On a turn 7♠, both players checked.
The 6♠ came in on the river, and Lindgren made a bet of 3,000. Barakat raised to 43,000 and was beaten into the middle by Lindgren.
Youness Barakat: A♠5♠
The spade spade runout gave Barakat an ace-high flush, and a very healthy number of chips to start his day.
